This story about transformations began when the country was in the upheaval of 'change' when organizations were craving to cope with the opening up of the economy. Changes in national and global economies made all familiar things seem outdated. Organizations and managers grappled with the transformations required to respond to the changing business landscape and acquire the required skills and role orientations.

The transformation was initiated by some organizations holistically by the development of their employees across all levels. All organizations were concerned with growth, expansion, the introduction of new technology and long-serving employees. Most of them had not experienced other organizations, nor were they exposed enough to perceive the role-transformations required. They were devoted and knew their job and were perplexed at the external changes. They aspired to participate in the organization's forward movement. However, their roles in the same or the new challenges were not clear to them.
